I started to look at this problem, but LAPACKE which the C interface we use now in PLASMA to call LAPACK doesn't support const. I will report them the problem and when it will be fixed on their side, we will update plasma to integrate the const parameter.

I've seen that PLASMA 2.5.0 is in the http repository (but not in the PLASMA web at the moment). When is planned to release it? And related with this thread, I've seen in plasma_d.h that const correctness of some vector arguments is not still managed. Is planned to do it?

How did you notice that ? This is a pre-release I generated for the MORSE project which extract PLASMA code to generate codes over Starpu and Wuark runtimes. This one will be released soon,probably even today.Concerning the const in plasma_x.h, I forgot I planned to do that for this release, I will do it. For now, only the core_blas have the const parameter managed.Finally, I was planning to release PLASMA this week, but some merge have been done in the trunk, and it will need some time to check this before to release. I will probably release the 2.5.0 actually on the server as a beta to fix bug from the previous one.

I just published on the website the release of 2.5.0 beta 1 which is in reality the tarball name 2.5.0 that you found on the website. The 2.5.0 will come later as soon as the extra algorithms will be fully integrated and checked. I also released a new version of the installer that includes a patch to avoid problems with lapack revision during download/installation.
